Down votes? Really? Space is perfectly analogous to the ocean. We can put on a mask, fins and a SCUBA and swim about effortlessly. But do we "live" in the ocean? No, we only temporarily "survive" there due to technology. Evolutionarily we left the ocean behind billions of years ago. We can never again live in the ocean even if we build a colony on the bottom of the Mariana Trench. It will simply be a technological "survival" device and nothing more. And would anyone choose to explore the Trench with actual humans? Of course not. That's what robots are for. And the same goes for space...
